Hockey Betting Lines

02/22/2012 - Ottawa, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Milan Michalek tallied twice to lead Ottawa past Washington, 5-2, at Scotiabank Place.

Erik Karlsson picked up a goal and two assists for the Senators, who have won four in a row and five of their last six.

Chris Phillips and Nick Foligno also found the net to back a 33-save performance from Craig Anderson.

John Carlson and Mathieu Perreault scored for the Capitals, who have dropped three in a row and six of seven. Alex Ovechkin did not play due to a lower- body injury suffered Monday at Carolina and is listed as day-to-day.

Tomas Vokoun was removed after allowing four goals on 11 shots in 32-plus minutes. Michal Neuvirth finished up by stopping all 14 shots he faced.

Despite a four-goal hole heading into the final 20 minutes, the visitors awoke when Carlson fired a shot past Anderson off a Semin dish at the 2:19 mark. Perreault then brought the Caps within 4-2 just seconds before the midway point.

Washington put an extra attacker on with 1:42 remaining, and Foligno hit the empty net less than 30 seconds later.

Karlsson put the Sens on the board just prior to the midway point of the first period on a wrister from the bottom of the right circle.

Michalek doubled the advantage with 5:47 to go, moving around Caps defenseman Dennis Wideman in the right circle and sliding a shot inside the near post.

Michalek added another score on a power play at 3:37 of the second period, and Philips struck at 12:08 on the advantage for a four-goal margin.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.

MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.

Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.

Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.

After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.

Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.

Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.

If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.

Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
